"Do you understand the charges before you?" the only light in the room were that of the fire lit all around, casting large shadows, making even the smallest of things seem frightening, but...these things were pale compared to what I was about to face. The owner of the voice, I knew so well, even though I had only spoken to her face to face a handful of times; growing up, I had heard of her voice plenty. My head was down, my hooves chained so I could not run to far, or too quickly, my once lightly blue color coat, now coated in grim and dust from my cell. My sky blue eyes half closed as I could only look down, my hair of which I would always use to have pushed back, much of that of Soarin of the Wonder Blots was not dangling in front of my muzzle or down the side of my head like rain had pushed it down. As I slowly looked up, I watched as from ether side of me, the Royal Guards held their spear's tip toward me, ready for at any moment to put me down if I was a threat. Looking up at the owner of the voice, even though I knew I was at her mercy, I couldn't help but be amazed by her grace; Princess Celestia of Equestria.

She was the largest pony I had ever laid eyes on, that because she is such a old Alicorn I know the facts of this. Even though, there were no winds in this room, her mane and tail flowed like a gentle breeze. Her mane and tail being that of many different colors, gold color jewelry covered her hooves, neck, and her head, of that of her crown. Her eyes, they did not hold that of anger for my 'crime' as she had spoken of. They showed worried and maybe even pride for what I was doing, and what I was about to risk.

"I do," I answered looking back down. I heard her let out a loud sigh as she then spoke once more.

"Very well, it will take me a few days to a week to decide of this is truly what I believe of it, if it is; you and her will be banished to the moon for the rest of your life. But before I live, and since you have been most well behaved since being here; I shall grant you anything you wish of, that does not mean me simply forgetting what we have found out." I nodded as I looked up.

"As you think, I would like to be in the room with her,"

"Princess if I may," one of the guards spoke as she nodded. "I think this is a bad idea, what if she feeds off of him and becomes stronger! We can not...."

"I will take full blame if that happens," I cut in. "If she does do that, and harms anypony, I shall be held accounted for her actions."

"For all we know he is under her spell!"

"Peace," Celestia spoke hushing him. "That is not possible, you your have read his file, I do not know why, but he is immune to their spells." The guard huffed and looked away. "And I shall grant you your wish,"

"Thank you your grace," I bowed slowly at her.

It took a while, but soon I found myself in front of her cell, no windows, no bars, just a big square, the guards there turned to the door and unlocked it before opening it; I was then thrown in as I groaned in pain, hearing the door closed roughly behind me.

"L...Light!" I opened my eyes and looked up as I smiled, my best friend, and the one I loved standing before me, Saki the Changeling. Like all changelings, normal ones I mean, she was about the same size, a little smaller then me but still normal size all the same. Her eyes, blue and white as they showed that of fear as she saw me for the first time in days. her skin reminded me of that of a bug, even her wings were bug like. Her legs and tail held holes, a trait all changelings had. She helped me to my hooves as I then fell on my side, so warned...so tried. "Lighting Knight! By the void, what did those guards do to you?!" I only chuckled softly at Saki's worried voice as I tried to stand back up, but failed horribly.

"They thought that they would hoof some sense into me you know," I answered simply looking up at her blue eyes. I watched as she bit the bottom of her lip slightly as I rolled my eyes and brought my head back down. "Why do you care anyway? From what I remember I'm just an idiotic pony that doesn't know what I want."

"I was angry, what did you thought I would say?!" I let a small smile come over my muzzle as she then came over to my chest, curling up as I brought a arm over her and held her close.

We stayed like this for who knows how long, the only sound were our breathings, or my wheezing of pain. After a while I felt her move from under me as I looked down at her to see her looking up at me.

"Can you tell me about our time together?" she asked me as I looked down at her. "If...if we both die, or get sent away, I want to hear our time together in your own words."

"If we do die," I pointed out with a smile. "It wouldn't make much sense huh?"

"No it wouldn't," she gave me a sly grin as I chuckled, only a bit seeing how it hurt to even breath much less laugh. "Please Light?" I looked back down at her as I then looked up, looking at pretty much nothing as I closed my eyes, and started to tell of our time together.
